Audac R 2 - Multizone Audio Matrix System

The R2 is a multi-zone audio distribution system which is a truly polyvalent solution for commercial and residential applications, with the fl exibility of a multizone router. It delivers a comprehensive and expandable powerful solution for nearly every situation. With its large number of extension modules and confi guration modes, it provides a solution for an uncountable amount of installations - large or small, simple or complex.
In general, it is an 8 x 8 digital audio matrix system, which is based on a powerful DSP processor. It is fully digitally controllable, and the built-in digital matrix makes it possible to patch any of the input signals to any of the output signals.
It is standard equipped with 8 analog line inputs and 8 analog line outputs, but the flexible structure of the device makes it easy to extend this number to an appropriate solution for each specific situation.
If desired, it is easy to cascade multiple R2?s with the fiber interconnection modules. This makes it possible to transfer up to 32 channels (16 stereo) and to extend to an unlimited number of zones.
But it is much more than that, due to the extremely powerful DSP processor, it provides greater fl exibility, higher reliability and lower latency than any other amplifi er of its kind. Moreover, it ?s capable of doing complex calculations on the digital audio signals, which makes it possible to integrate digital fi lters into the system and generate complex audiosignals. In addition, a real-time clock is provided which makes it possible to create time schedules with up to 256 pre-programmed events, single and recurring.
Every R2 is standard equipped with an integrated Ethernet control interface which makes itpossible to confi gure and control the R2 from any PC, laptop or PDA which is connected to the internet. Just use your browser, go to the appropriate website and you have complete control of the R2.
An optional touchscreen can be installed in the front of the amplifier and there are optional wall control panels whereby the desired music source and volume can be selected for a specific zone.
An RS232 interface is provided for configuration and control with peripherals from other manufacturers which make use of an RS232 connection, like AMX, Crestron,? and the control commands are freely available which makes it easy to develop specific applications that work in combination with the R2.
